How to Make Verry Berry French Toast

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  2. Add the blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries to the egg mixture. Gently stir to coat the berries.
  3. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated. Let the bread soak for about 15-20 seconds per side.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  5. Cook the French toast for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Serve immediately with the warm berry syrup.
  7. **For the Berry Syrup (doubled):** Combine the berries, sugar, lemon juice, and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the berries have softened and the sauce has thickened. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve if desired for a smoother texture.
